Week of September 2nd

This week we start MAP (Measure of Academic Progress) testing.  Our first test will be our Math portion, and we will be taking that Tuesday afternoon.  We will be taking our Reading portion next week.  The students will also take these two tests in both the winter and the spring to track their progress throughout the school year.  

Students will be receiving their spelling lists Tuesday.  With it being a short week, please be sure to remind your child to study his/her list of words.  We will still read our weekly story on Wednesday of this week and take the reading test on Thursday. 

We will be having our first math test on Friday.  The day before the math test we always take time to review all material that was covered in the topic.  Students will also have a practice test that they can review problems from in order to prepare them for the test.  We have started our daily multiplication quizzes.  Some students are doing a great job while other students need a lot of practice with their multiplication facts.

This Friday night is the first home football game.  Hopefully some of the students will be able to make it out to the game to cheer on our high school football team.  On Friday of this week, the students will be read an announcement on what type of behavior is expected when attending a football game at the high school.

Here is this week's Spelling Review
